Following customer feedback highlighting the need for a product with 4 in. couplings and higher throughput, Loma redesigned the Pipeline’s inlet and outlet manifold to accommodate the increase in diameter. The X-ray section itself is now rectangular, which changes the shape of the contents passing through the system, rather than compressing them. Additionally, the feed to the X-ray section is on a gradual incline to aid flow and reduce back pressure.
The X5 Pipeline includes all of the standard features from the X5 range, but also has upgrades from the previous-generation model including a removable cassette for easy cleaning, integrated safety sensors and an easy-to-use capacitive 8 in. touchscreen, thereby ensuring the highest levels of regulatory compliance through real-time data collection. Providing easy access to all machine areas and rated to IP69 as standard, the system is designed to be used within a high-care or high-temperature, high-pressure wash-down environment.
The X5 Pipeline can be fitted with ARU (2.5 in.) and ARL (2.5 in. or 3 in. ,4 in.) automatic reject options to reduce waste and increase productivity, and is designed to be compatible with vacuum-filling machine brands such as Handtmann, Vemag, and Risco.
